Health and Medicine

The University of Chicago’s history of scientific and medical breakthroughs—from the discovery of REM sleep to the first hormonal cancer therapies—was achieved through a simple formula: bring the best minds together and empower them to pursue the most urgent and challenging questions.

Through this same formula, our distinctive intellectual community continues to untangle medical mysteries, pioneer new fields, and elevate the standards of healthcare.

Today, the possibilities for human health exceed what most of us thought possible just a decade or two ago. New technologies are transforming the way we think about medicine and the way we diagnose, prevent, and treat health conditions.

With our legacy of scientific achievement, culture of interdisciplinary collaboration, expertise in evolving fields such as quantum medicine and artificial intelligence, and network of world-class partner laboratories, UChicago offers leadership the world needs.

We are committed to scaling UChicago’s global impact in healthcare and scientific innovation. Philanthropic partnership will play a critical role in all we seek to accomplish.
